| Description | This chapter discusses the underlying principles of multiphoton microscopy (MPM) and the technical realization. A major challenge in the field of neuroscience is to understand how the orchestrated activity of millions of neurons leads to cognitive function and behavior. The chapter is devoted to some more exciting and upcoming techniques in MPM, especially regarding imaging deep in living tissues and improving the imaging speed and capacity to distinguish multiple fluorophores. Most multiphoton imaging experiments that deal with live and scattering tissue will likely be limited at some point by the attainable image depth or at least will face rapidly decreasing signal and contrast when trying to image deeper. Being able to image multiple fluorophores or “colors” simultaneously is becoming increasingly important in biology for a variety of purposes, such as visualizing different specific molecules in a subcellular context, recording activity and signaling events, but also for tracking cell anatomy, movement, and lineage.
